About the memorial: This is not a war memorial but a CWGC cemetery feature see the Protection tab. It is under the care of the CWGC whose graves and memorials are offical commemorative sites as opposed to local or community war memorials created by public subscription which are the focus of this website. See the What is a war memorial section of this website for further information. The old cemetery (also known simply as Hove Cemetery), lies on the south side of Old Shoreham Road, about two miles west of the station, north of the railway line. The new cemetery (also known as Hove Cemetery North) is situated on the northern side of Old Shoreham Road. The cemetery was first used in 1882, and belongs to the Council. It contains 86 War Graves of the First World War (the majority of which are in the War Plot in Block E) and 17 of the Second World War. The War Plot is enclosed by a low hedge, and a War Cross is erected on the North side of it.

As a conservation charity which gives grants War Memorials Trust can support repair and conservation works that follow best conservation practice. Grants are awarded from funds raised by the charity so money available is limited and is therefore focused on eligible war memorials.

War Memorials Trust’s Definition of a war memorial for funding purposes helpsheet explains which war memorials are eligible and ineligible for funding.

As a charity, War Memorials Trust relies on voluntary donations and every contribution, no matter how large or small, makes a really big difference to our work. Your donation will help protect and conserve war memorials for future generations so please support War Memorials Trust’s work.
